Editorial Reviews

“I think this book begins to fill a serious gap in the market. Many students are turned off by economics because they don't see its applicability for their jobs. This book makes economics relevant to the NFP manager." Robert T. Greenbaum, Ohio State University

“This book does a fine job meeting the needs of Public Administration students.”John Graham, Rutgers University

“The Keatings’ approach of using cost-benefit analysis as a capstone is for the best, since it gets students to use what they have learned about markets and the information contained in market prices, and what they have learned about market failure, in a unified application.”Michael Rushton, Indiana University

“The exercises are a lot more useful for public management students than the ones in standard economics textbooks. They are the kind I end up writing for myself.”John McPeak, Syracuse University
